Sutton Coldfield Blue Plaque Trail by Roger Lea

£3.50 + £2.40 p & p

Written for the Sutton Coldfield Civic Society, this beautifully illustrated book follows an imaginary party who start off with a cup of coffee at Moor Hall Hotel, noting its association with Bishop Vesey. They then embark on a walk around the town, following the trail of blue plaques placed at pertinent sites commemorating such characters as Emma Barton, Francis Brett Young, William Woodington, Agnes Bracken, William Wilson, George Bodington and Baron Dickinson Webster, all of whom have left a lasting legacy to the town of Sutton Coldfield. There is also a map in the book showing the Listed Buildings that are passed en route.
